Not Getting Any Younger
Sioni’d seen a program on the telli once, at Dai’s house, back long ago, where there was this bloke who’d done a murder. And at the very end they showed him being taken off, and taken to the room with the rope and the executioner bloke. And though Dai had joked about it Sioni had hated that bit: the knowin’, like. And he wondered how you could ever face up to something that awful, how you could ever be brave enough not to just blub and scream and wet yourself, really. It didn’t seem like it could be possible.
But the truth was, you thought of other people and what they would want you to do, and you did that. You were never brave for yourself, really. Because you already knew you were scared whitless. You were brave for the rest. The ones who needed you brave.
"I...I, Sioni,"
Caitlin. She was so little and … hurt looking now. Not like she should look. Not like he would look if somebody loved him. Well. Maybe it all depended, like.
"We need...I need to talk to you."
Maybe he was wrong. Maybe she wasn’t going to say it. But if she was, he might as well get it over. Because standing here feeling like this wasn’t any fun at all, see? You tried your best; you did your best; you played your best. But when the other bloke got the Snitch…. Well.
Sioni reached over and took Caitlin’s hand. She couldn’t deny him that, could she?
“Is that a fact?” He said quietly. “Then let’s talk out front, where it’s quiet.” Not that it wasn’t quiet, just then in the Entrance Hall, just that he wanted to be out in front, against the wall, where he’d kissed her that first time. “Come on, then,” He said and led her through the door. Whatever she said, he’d rather hear it in the open air.
